The Reaper - A Revised Version by Michael Aye

The Reaper - A Revised Version
by Michael Aye

Captain Gilbert Anthony has a lot on his mind. He has just been decorated for extraordinary bravery under fire, been given command of the fourth-rate Drakkar, learned from his fathers deathbed that he as a fully grown illegitimate brother, and will soon be dispatched on a special mission chasing pirates in the Caribbean…and thats just in the first fifteen pages!

Honoring his dying father, the eponymous “Fighting James Anthony,” Vice Admiral of the Blue, Gil takes his half-brother Gabriel into the ships company as a senior midshipman. As Drakkar sails, Captain Anthony soon realizes having his brother aboard might not be the family reunion he hoped for when he encounters the resentment of one of his officers, Lieutenant Witzenfeld.

But the real conflict lies ahead with the menacing pirate raiders who must be captured to end the depredations against peaceful English merchants. There Drakkar will find the feared pirate frigate Reaper and have her entire crew tested in savage combat!
